How do you dial in new coffee? (kbin.social)

I would like to see what others are changing when you start a new bag of coffee. I will preface that I only do pourover.

I keep my ratio the same as well as my brew temp/# of pours. I really only adjust my grind size to aim for similar brew times and then from there adjust grind size based on taste/astringency.

I typically keep my grind size the same and adjust brewing ratio and extraction time. I'll start with a 1:16 ratio and move up or down slightly from there. I do most of my better cups with a Hario Switch, so I can change the immersion time too.

Oh wow you're like the opposite of me except I also use the Switch but again with the immersion times and such I'm still pretty static. I actually use a mix of Sprometheus's and Tetsu's Devil recipe

Ratio is a really good variable to target but I confess I don't use it as often as I should because I just don't want to do math in the morning

Yeah to be honest I don't play around with my morning coffee. I just try to get good coffee ASAP in the morning. If I'm going to mess around it's going to be midmorning on the weekend or in the afternoon.
